Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me, I think they're okayIf they don't give me proper credit, I just walk awayThey can beg and they can plead, but they can't see the light'Cause the boy with the cold, hard cash is always Mr. Right

'Cause we are living in a material worldAnd I am a material girlYou know that we are living in a material worldAnd I am a material girl

Some boys romance, some boys slow dance, that's alright with meIf they can't raise my interests then I have to let them beSome boys try and some boys hide, but I don't let them playOnly boys that save their pennies, make my rainy day

'Cause they are living in a material worldAnd I am a material girlYou know that we are living in a material worldAnd I am a material girl

Boys may come, and boys may go and that's alright, you seeExperience has made me rich, and now they're after me

'Cause everybody's living in a material worldAnd I am a material girlYou know that we are living in a material worldAnd I am a material girl

Living in a material worldAnd I am a material girlYou know that we are living in a material worldAnd I am a material girl

A material

Living in a material worldAnd I am a material girlYou know that we are living in a material worldAnd I am a material girl
